Amor e historia. La expresión de los afectos en el mundo de ayer

Los textos reunidos en este volumen se refieren a múltiples concepciones del amor, aunque inevitablemente predominen los referidos a la reminiscencia medieval del amor que hemos perpetuado como relación sentimental de una pareja. Pero también hablamos del amor o de la falta de amor fraterno y filial, del amor al arte y a la ciencia, al mar y a Dios. En varios de los capítulos queda implícita la referencia al criterio aristotélico de la amistad como expresión perfecta del amor, mientras que tampoco olvidamos los otros amores ocasionales.
